Tight Lines, Mr. President

Regardless of your political views, I believe any President of the United States will make better decisions after time on the river fly fishing for trout.

Here are a couple of pictures of President Obama fly fishing during a recent visit to Montana (pictures and captions taken directly from the Official Whitehouse Photo Stream at Flickr).

Tight lines, Mr. President.
